Zhang Debiao couldn't help but ask again: "What if I don't choose anything? What should I do if I don't take refuge in the crown prince, nor in the Southern Ming Dynasty, let alone the emperor?"

Cameron Ridge stroked Xiao Hei's head and smiled, "Then you can only be a dog who pees around and grabs turf." ”

Zhang Debiao fell into deep thought, the old man chuckled, got up and yawned, and went back to the small shack to sleep. Zhang Debiao sat there thinking hard, becoming a bone or a dog fighting for territory was not his true thought in his heart, and besides that, was there no other way to go?

Cameron Ridge's analogy of bones and dogs, as if it has a deeper meaning, is not just used to describe the vanity fair of Mikyo City, but to ask about his attitude towards life.

"Or, there is a third way......"

Zhang Debiao thought of the fist intent of those fighting saints in the half-dimensional space of the temple dragon turtle, the kind of strong spirit that imprinted his spirit in the void, God is me, I am God, everyone is their own god, maybe if you do that, you can jump out of the category of dogs and bones!

Thinking of this, Zhang Debiao felt comfortable for a while, got up and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then you might as well make a bone first." ”

Changing into the robes of a magic apprentice, Zhang Debiao took Xiao Hei and strode towards the prince's mansion.

Cameron Ridge looked at his back, a hint of disappointment in his eyes, and muttered, "Didn't he see the third way? It's a pity that such a good qualification...... For many years, I was the only one on this road, and even my old friend went to make bones. It's really ......"

"Lonely, ......"

Zhang Debiao came to the prince's mansion, and finally saw the prince up close, he once looked at the crown prince from a distance, only to feel that the noble temperament is simply incomparable, now looking at him from a close distance, he feels that the temperament has become a little lighter, as if walking down from the altar, I don't know whether his state of mind has become high, or the result of His Royal Highness the prince's deliberate restraint of his momentum.

The crown prince of Zhou is the eldest son of the emperor, named Bolun Andre, when he walked towards him, Zhang Debiao's ears couldn't help but move, the prince of Bolun turned out to be a master of refined vindictiveness, the vindictive spirit in his body was surging, extremely powerful and powerful, and he reached the height of the vindictive spirit like a mountain!

The way his Dou Qi operates is extremely strange, just listening to the sound of the flow of his Dou Qi gives people a feeling of infinity and infinite breadth!

Zhang Debiao's eyes flashed, and he said in his heart: "The Great Zhou royal family has ruled the world for hundreds of years, and the collection of martial arts is so rich that it can be said to be the first holy place in the world. Moreover, the holy dragon's blood, dragon crystal, and other cherished alchemy materials are not uncommon in the royal family. It is not surprising that Prince Bren's cultivation can have such a deed. ”

Prince Bolun took his hand and smiled affectionately: "Aman, this king has invited you many times, and you are finally willing to come." Come on in, the prom has begun!"

I have to say that Prince Bolun is extremely approachable, and directly calls Zhang Debiao by his nickname to shorten the distance between the two, although this is just a means of entrapment, but it still makes Zhang Debiao feel a little good.

The prince's invitation to him to the banquet was actually a palace ball held by the customary surname after the year, but the palace balls that could be held in the prince's mansion were obviously the descendants of Prince Bolun.

"Aman, let me introduce to you, this is the Count of Alenkos, whose ancestors are the famous founding fathers, hereditary counts......!

Zhang Debiao looked respectful, and nodded and greeted the descendants of Prince Bolun, these descendants are all nobles in the imperial capital, most of them are hereditary titles, and they can't look at him at all, but they are just in the way of the prince's face, so they pretend to be very interested in him, and when Prince Bolun finishes his introduction, all the birds and beasts are scattered, in groups of three or two, toasting and talking together, and from time to time there is a knowing laughter, and Zhang Debiao is hanging there.

Prince Bolun also had many people to greet him, and he couldn't care about accompanying him, and the barbarian from southern Xinjiang soon became the commander of the light pole, but fortunately, there was still Xiao Hei by his side.

Zhang Debiao looked at these nobles and let out a sneer in his heart: "His Royal Highness Bolun's pattern is too small, and all the big nobles in the city are enveloped, and there are not even a few generals with troops! What will these nobles do besides participating in balls and playing with women?"

Although he didn't have a deep understanding of Prince Bolun, seeing this palace ball, Zhang Debiao knew that this prince was okay to play with power, but he didn't have much ability, and compared with Prince Nanming, who could lead troops to raid the enemy country, it seemed a little different.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and smiled: "Why am I asking this? The prince's incompetence is his business, anyway, I won't stay in the imperial capital for a long time, and when the time comes, I'll leave, who is the emperor and what does it matter to me? Xiao Hei, there is really a lot of food here, what do you want to eat?"

Xiao Hei's round eyes stared at a big fat nobleman, who was the Count of Aaronkos introduced by Prince Buren, and his saliva flowed.

Zhang Debiao shook his head: "This can't be eaten." ”

Xiao Hei stared at a plump lady again, blinked, and looked at his master pitifully. Zhang Debiao became angry, knocked twice on its little head, and said angrily: "Don't eat people, I'm talking about the roast suckling pig on the flowing water seat, what do you think?"

Xiao Hei lowered his head, obviously not very interested in roasting suckling pig. Zhang Debiao took out a demon core produced in the Godfall Desert and threw it to it, the little guy immediately held it and squeaked and gnawed, a nobleman just walked to the puppy's side, Xiao Hei immediately grinned, and a threatening sound came out of his throat, almost bursting out and hurting people.

Zhang Debiao hurriedly calmed it down and sighed, this mountain guard dog has become a little violent since it evolved its second head, and the adult Cerberus has a total of three heads, symbolizing loyalty, brutality and killing, and the second head that Xiao Hei evolved is probably brutal.

"Xiao Hei is more irritable than before, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. ”

This boring palace banquet finally ended, the nobles said goodbye one after another, Zhang Debiao was about to leave, and suddenly Prince Bolun smiled and said: "Aman, you are practicing swordsmanship, right?"

Zhang Debiao nodded yes.

Prince Bolun said with a smile: "There are very few fighting skills handed down from the sword arts, and there are only a few sword saints who have made great achievements in cultivating sword skills throughout the ages, and it just so happens that there is a sword technique in the palace arsenal, which is the fighting skills left by the sword saints of the previous dynasty, called the Eight Gates Golden Lock Knife." I wonder if you're interested?"

Zhang Debiao was surprised and delighted in his heart, since he chose the tourmaline knife, he has been groping alone, but the knife technique is not long, if there is a sword technique left by the sword saint, the strength will definitely be doubled!

Prince Bren's hands clapped his hands, and Aaron Carter, who was standing nearby, brought a gold plate with a book wrapped in satin. Zhang Debiao took it in his hand, opened it and browsed it, and it was really an incomparably exquisite knife technique, and he was overjoyed.

Prince Bolun glanced at the Eight Gates Golden Lock Knife and smiled casually: "Ah Man, I wonder if your mentor Lord Brandra is in the Imperial Palace? This king has admired him for a long time, and hopes to meet him when he has time." ”

"It turns out that my 'mentor' is called Brandra......"

Zhang Debiao muttered in his heart, put the Eight Golden Lock Knife into the space ring, and said: "Back to Your Highness, my mentor has traveled all over the world, and I don't know when I will come back." If you see him, you will definitely convey to your mentor His Highness's kind invitation. ”

Prince Bolun was a little disappointed, and said with a smile: "When the time comes, please ask Ah Man to say a few more kind words." ”

"Definitely, definitely!" Zhang Debiao nodded again and again, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, you don't need to send it, please go back!"

...... Leaving the Prince's Mansion, Zhang Debiao took out the eight-door golden lock knife, flipped through it and read it several times, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "His Royal Highness the Prince is really generous, and even the sword skills of the Sword Saint can be sent out casually! The Great Zhou royal family's collection is really rich, I don't know how many advanced fighting skills there are in it, if you can go in and browse and learn at will." ”

"It's a pity that I don't know who Brandra is, and if Brandra is not invited by then, the prince will definitely be annoyed and angry, and he doesn't know what he will be angry about. Regardless of him, if he can deceive for a while, when he can't deceive, Lao Tzu will run away......"

Back to the Magic Guild, Zhang Debiao immediately began to study this eight-door golden lock knife, and ate the meaning of the words bit by bit, and then closed his eyes to recuperate, in his mind, he had already begun to perform the knife technique according to the knife decision, over and over again, until the knife technique was thoroughly understood, and completely integrated into his consciousness and body, then he jumped up, took out the tourmaline knife, condensed the spiritual qi, and performed the first style of the eight-door golden lock knife.

There are a total of eight styles and sixty-four variations of the Eight Golden Lock Knife, each of which has eight variations, Zhang Debiao poured his spiritual power into the blade, completely activated the magic array and runes of the tourmaline knife, and immediately unfolded his body, and the first style of the knife technique was deployed.

Before the first change of the first form was used, Zhang Debiao stopped, and the fighting spirit in his body was churning endlessly, almost forking in the road, and he went crazy!

"This sword technique is extremely exquisite, it can't be fake, how can it not be used?"

Zhang Debiao pondered carefully for a moment, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly realized: "The Sword Saint must be the same as the Dou Saint of my Southern Xinjiang Barbarians, he has his own fist intent and divine thoughts, and the Sword Saint's sword technique must condense his own god in order to use the sword technique completely!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Debiao's momentum changed suddenly, the bridge of life and death appeared in front of him, and the first change of the first type of the Eight Gates Golden Lock Knife was suddenly used, and the fighting spirit was running without hindrance!

I saw that the tourmaline sword was sheng, tumbling and rolling in the air, and an emerald green sword rose into the air, splitting the void with a click, leaving sword marks more than ten meters long on the ground of the square!

Zhang Debiao took advantage of the situation to make the second change, only to feel that the momentum condensed to an unimaginable peak in an instant, and even far exceeded the realm of other people's fighting spirit!

He was about to make this second change, when suddenly the supply of fighting qi in his body was insufficient, and his momentum disappeared suddenly, and that strong contrast made Zhang Debiao so sad that he almost vomited blood!

His fighting spirit was consumed when he made the first change!
